Day 0 Little H is splashing around in the bath after a busy day at nursery. I come in to get her out and my Mum-Senses are immediately drawn to some spots on her shoulders, lower tummy and back. Much to her annoyance I proceed to examine them. I’ve convinced myself Little H has chicken pox on several occasions that turned out to be nothing. This time though, my instincts tell me this was the real deal. Without a doubt …

Films are a huge deal in Casa Watling. Sam is an avid fan and we have a pretty large collection. We fully intend to get Little H similarly hooked. When I spotted this topic on the 30 Days Blogging Challenge list, I was quite excited. But in reality it was hard to come up with a finite list. I know there are films I love which I’ve forgotten too! However, whatever my mood, I could happily watch at least one …

A few weeks ago, Sam and I went to the Warner Brothers Studio Tour to see the Making of Harry Potter exhibition. I make no secret of the fact I am a massive Harry Potter fan: I have all of the books (including the first 5 en Español), all of the films and even a few frames one of the original ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince’ film reels. So, I was quite excited about seeing the original sets and props! …

For the observant / film buffs amongst you, you will recognise that as a line from the infamous Toy Story 3. Poor Buzz has been switched to Spanish Mode and for a few precious minutes, some of my most favourite moments in film history take place. His questioning about the whereabouts of his spaceship, followed by his exclaim “¡El Vaquero!” when Jessie is over-joyed to see Woody just make me chuckle and want to jump on board a plane to …

Following slightly from my blog post earlier today, Sam and I watched ‘The Making of The Social Network’ on the special features disc. It was really interesting actually – one of the better special features programmes I have seen. It is amazing the attention to detail that went in to portraying that film. If you’ve seen the film, it’s worth a watch. If you haven’t seen the film, watch the film. …

How has the weekend ended already?! It has all gone far too quickly. Sam said to me earlier that we should do more things of a weekday evening so that we aren’t just waiting for the weekend. But it’s not just that, the week comes with such an admin overhead. But I suppose that is life! I have had a busy day today doing various bits and bobs. I have been on-call so couldn’t really go out. I took the …

I’m not even 30 yet but I can no longer handle nights out at all! We met our sisters in town last night for dinner and drinks. By 10:30pm, I was yawning away. Albeit i had been awake since 6:45 because of rowing, but still, we had enjoyed a few cocktails which usually wake one up with the sugar and alcohol content! Anyway, we were in bed by 12:30am (we stayed at some special hotel for Sam’s work it town!) …
